Bible Question: Why is childbirth a defilement that requires cleansing and atonement? Why was it double for an infant girl than an infant boy? (Leviticus 12) |
Bible Answer: Hello davidcw, Welcome to the Forum. Leviticus is God's guidebook for His newly redeemed people, showing them how to worship, serve and obey a holy God. Chapter 12 is in the section of Laws of Israel regarding purity. Specifically, in 12:1 we have Laws concerning childbirth. These can be viewed as instructions in obedience to the children of Israel (12:1). The purpose for them is stated in 11:44- "For I am the LORD your God. Consecrate yourselves therefore, and be holy, for I am holy." I hope this helps, BradK |
